Tsavo East & Tsavo West 3-Day Safari from Voi

Overview

Tsavo East and Tsavo West: a three-day safari from Voi

Tsavo is Kenya’s largest park system and is split into Tsavo East and Tsavo West. This three-day itinerary starts in Voi and covers both: the flat, red plains of Tsavo East first, then the more varied scenery of Tsavo West.

The route

Day one is a game drive in Tsavo East from Voi Gate. Day two continues across to Tsavo West for game viewing and its well-known features such as Mzima Springs, the Shetani lava flow and the rhino sanctuary, subject to access and conditions. Day three is a morning game drive before the transfer to Mtito Andei, back to Voi, or onward as you prefer.

Arrival and finish

Arrive in Voi by SGR, bus or shuttle, or in your own vehicle. Finish in Voi, or at Mtito Andei where the Tsavo West gate and the SGR station are, so you can continue to Nairobi or Mombasa.

Good to know

Which features are open and the best order of visits depend on season and park conditions; your guide confirms the plan. Park fees, accommodation and meals are itemised in your written quote.

Highlights

  • Two parks in one safari
  • Tsavo East plains and elephant herds
  • Tsavo West’s Mzima Springs and Shetani lava flow

Frequently asked questions

Can we start the safari straight from the SGR?

Yes. Tell us your train and arrival time and we meet you at Voi station and transfer you to the safari vehicle or park gate. Please check your service’s timetable and the stations it stops at when you book.

We are coming by bus or shuttle. Where do we meet?

Ask to be dropped in Voi town. We meet you at the stop or at our Voi office near the Voi Curio Shop, about 1 km before Voi Main Gate, depending on your arrival time.

Where can the safari finish?

Back in Voi, at Mtito Andei or at Emali, so you can continue by SGR, bus or private transport to Nairobi or Mombasa. Tell us your onward travel time and we plan around it.

Are animal sightings guaranteed?

No. Wildlife is wild and sightings vary with season, weather and luck. Your driver-guide knows where to look and plans game drives around the best light.
